Grands-Echézeaux

2007 Potel Nicolas Grands-Echézeaux

By on June 30, 2009 #asides

10% stems here. More aromatic width but less depth versus the Echézeaux, but the complexity is on a higher level and there’s a faint muskiness. Fills the mouth with pure, ripe fruit then a super mid-palate burst. Last thoughts are a hint of astringency that’s long forgotten as the flavour eventually fades – super.

2007 Clos Frantin Grands-Echézeaux

A gorgeous blend of spice and depth and width to the nose, that’s dovetailed to a melange of black and red fruit – it’s almost a velvety aroma. More tannin, a little grained, but very ripe. The fruit takes over much later into the mid-palate though flows through a very impressive length.

2007 Gros Frère & Soeur Grands-Echézeaux

The nose his nice depth, but less width than the Echézeaux. Intense with some slightly savoury flavours – also the acidity seems a little tart. Good length, but versus many other wines here – probably not worth the tariff.
